From the author of the bestselling Jalna series comes a story of a farm inheritance that cultivates an illicit love affair.

For Derek Vale, Grimstone farm is more than an inheritance. It’s an adventure and a retreat all in one, and a chance to start over. But when an affair with a seasonal fruit-picker crosses racial lines, a gathering scandal and an unexpected child are only the first signs of a storm that could rip Grimstone from its foundations.
